San Diego’s Greenbee – So Delicious!

Have you ever tried a healthy green juice but it literally left you feeling green? There are many awesome, delicious, vibrant green juices out there, and many that well, just didn’t do it for me. However recently I was contacted by San Diego’s Greenbee to try their Greenbee Super Smoothie and Super Soup and both were delicious!

I know what some of you FODMAPers are saying! There’s definitely some HIGH Fodmap foods in this juice, however, being the experimental person that I am, I had to see how this juice would hold up with my guts. Did I have symptoms? Nope. I felt excellent. The amount of any high fodmap ingredients was minimal. I actually drank the juice in the morning before going to the gym, and it was the first thing to enter my digestive system. I don’t drink coffee anymore because of both my IBS and Hashimoto’s disease, so this juice was a wonderful pick me up.

I highly suggest that if you have IBS, Hashimoto’s or any other auto-immune disease that you consider getting a local delivery service like Greenbee to ensure you have fresh juice everyday. If you already have a juicer and make great use of it and live in San Diego, CA, I still think you’ll find this juice will be one of the best you’ve ever had.

DETOX SOUP, YUM!

I also had the Super Cleanse (Detox) Super Soup, which was designed to kick-start the metabolism and detoxify the body. It was SO luscious, creamy and no overpowering flavors. It had me thinking that I’d love to have a little bit of it every week! A renowned San Diego Chef helped to develop this nutritious recipe which includes: daikon radish, leeks, paprika, cayenne, curry, carrots, cauliflower, coconut oil, kale and just a tad of garlic. I did not have any IBS symptoms from the garlic or any other ingredient.

If you are in the San Diego, California area I would definitely recommend signing up for their delivery service! If need be, you can cancel at any time. Right now they are offering 50% off the first week, check it out: http://supergreenbee.com/super-smoothie/half-off-first-week/ They have weekly, monthly and six month plans.
